Remember one month ago Italian police seized an extremely dangerous pla letter opener and a teenager’s printer?
They’re back
First they seized “a factory” of PLA knuckles: https://www.ildolomiti.it/cronaca/2026/un-15enne-e-un-13enne-producevano-tirapugni-con-le-stampanti-3d-della-scuola-hanno-anche-minacciato-un-compagno-che-voleva-denunciarli (a 13 years old kid printed multiple copies with the school’s printer)
Now they went to the home of another middle schooler to seize his printer because he printed a prop from assassin’s Creed: https://www.rainews.it/tgr/bolzano/articoli/2026/02/lame-stampate-in-3d-sequestrate-in-una-scuola-di-bolzano-eb67732d-a7a1-4eac-842b-a0bf7a87e937.html
I feel much safer now that those factories of dangerous weapons are now seized
Yes, it’s the literal translation of our term for bladed melee weapons.
thank you
To add to this, it is the general term for all non-firearms: so it covers also bludgeons and anything else you swing by hand.
Oh, I was convinced it was specifically bladed, as opposed to armi contundenti.
